i just realized... tr is full of shit. who the fuck cares? really? fuck your oppinions. some people just wont get that stretching a tire does actually increase sidewall rigidity. theyre just going to fucking fight about it on a god damned internet forum.

all ive found this site to be is people arguing all the time with random fucking troll comments here and there. fuck you all. except for the cool ones...

Hey guy, good job showing how "civil" your posts are and you really do seem to know your stuff. Quality information is what ive come to expect from you. I hope one day, maybe, if i try really really hard I can be as smart as you.

btw i have a Van halen shirt on, because i figure thats what a good O'l V8 boy would wear Get over yourself man.

Once again, it's not as crucial as back in the day with older technology, but it undoubtedly stiffens the walls a little bit more.

I saw that it says its stiffer, but he doesnt even tell us what tires he was putting on what rim specifically. Like i said, this extreme VIP stretch shit is probably 4x as much as this guy is referring to. I want an updated test not some bullshit from the 50s. You know how wrong and stupid we where in the 50s?
